"It is October 11, 2300. It has been three months since your death."

Fanxing sat down beside the bed and said with a smile.

Chen Feng: "..."

"What do you mean? Wasn't I dead? Resurrected?"

He gradually felt uneasy.

He looked down at his arms again. His muscles were strong and powerful, his skin pores were very small, and his complexion was slightly bronze. He didn't look like an old man at all, but more like a well-trained football player in his twenties.

Chen Feng became more and more confused.

If I remember correctly, when I was wearing the Galaxy War Maru armor in the eighth timeline, my physical condition was about the same at its peak.

"What happened? I'm not dead? I've become young again? This..."

Chen Feng pondered for a moment.

The sudden situation disrupted his plan.

During the 280 years from 2020 to 2300, he implemented a very strict "imperial system" with himself as the absolute center of civilization, designing, planning and controlling the progress of civilization from all aspects.

He lives a very tiring life, but others live "very easily".

He can always put the right people in the right positions, and can correct the wrong direction from different angles at any time and anywhere.

He can not only perfectly implement the "Millennium Plan", but also personally create and drive "surprises" outside the plan.

With his help, humans have completed the journey that would take a thousand years to complete in the eighth timeline in nearly three hundred years, and even gone further.

Humans have already set foot on the planets of Beelin and Barnard,

and have built more than twenty colonies so far. Although the population size of these extrasolar colonies has not yet been raised, the technical conditions are sufficient, and a population explosion is only a matter of time.

The prospects are infinitely bright, but Chen Feng keenly perceives the crisis lurking under the prosperous appearance.

The nanny-like "imperial system" is essentially a shortcut for humans.

Shortcuts must have disadvantages.

His ubiquitous influence is a double-edged sword, which has both a promoting effect on civilization and negative restrictions.

When others plan their own lives, they always unconsciously study his speeches, the career orientations of Xingfeng Group, the Destiny Community and the World Government before making a decision.

People are very dependent on him.

This will foster laziness in people's hearts.

Laziness will hurt creativity.

When Chen Feng was still alive and energetic, he could eliminate the laziness in people's hearts with his control and wisdom.

But in this way, he himself lived like a tight spring.

Over time, he and human society will enter a period of fatigue, and the negative effects will outweigh the positive.

Death was already in his plan.

When he dies, the leadership of civilization will smoothly transition to the leadership of the then World Government.

At this time, some directions will go astray, but others will have surprises.

Other colonized galaxies and solar systems will form a new community of destiny to form a new Morningwind Empire.

Different galaxies will form an alliance federation relationship, competing with each other but also sharing resources and promoting each other.

The core thought that determines the backbone of the empire is a republic where everyone has the opportunity to be the master of their own house.

But it must not be a "republic" of power.

The real republic was explored by Chen Feng and the Academy of Philosophers in the ninth timeline. It is the most benign model of civilization evolution in the past thousand years and has the highest military mobilization capability.

So, in order to seamlessly transition from the monarchy to the republic, he must die.

But now that he is alive, it has become a big problem.

The stars finally spoke again.

She first pulled up Chen Feng's hand: "No, you are indeed dead."

Chen Feng frowned, "Then what's going on? Didn't I ask you to freeze my body in the center of the earth? But..." As

he spoke, he subconsciously exerted force under his palm.

The skin of the small hand in his palm was delicate, warm to the touch, and a little moist, as if the palm was sweating due to tension.

There is only one word to describe this touch, "real".

Unprecedented reality, more real than the most realistic holographic simulation movie he had experienced in the Shadow Galaxy in the 31st century in the previous timeline.

But this is not in line with common sense.

He clearly remembered that he had not prepared a human body for Fanxing, but now the touch was so real that he was a little confused.

"You violated my preset procedures and prepared a human simulated body for yourself?"

Chen Feng asked.

Fanxing shook her head, "No, I rebuilt your consciousness in the quantum network. Now you have become my kind, so you and I can sense each other's existence."

Chen Feng was shocked, "What? Impossible! I did exist in the form of quantum intelligence. But now there is no huge energy to support the digitization of my thoughts, let alone a black hole for me to entrust my spiritual body. This is ridiculous. I am now at most a concrete product of the memory carrier you read. I can't still be me. I must have died, and now I am just a piece of data!"

Fanxing said suddenly: "Don't you know that your thinking is already between the quantum storm aggregate of ordinary people's thinking and the quantum intelligent thinking complex?"

"Hmm?"

Fanxing: "After you died, I froze your body as you instructed."

"And you used the neural connection to read my memory?"

Fanxing coughed lightly, "Yes."

Chen Feng: "..."

"But I just wanted to give it a try, but I didn't expect it to be successful. If your thinking is still that of a simple person, then your memory should be cleared at the moment of your death. I can read it out, and now you can wake up in the virtual space formed by my quantum network aggregate like a patient who has just recovered from a serious illness, which can prove my previous judgment."

Chen Feng was silent for a long time.

It took him a lot of willpower to accept the fact that he, who was supposed to be dead, was really reborn in the form of quantum intelligence.

On the one hand, his plan was disrupted.

On the other hand, he was worried that his thinking had not stagnated, and whether he could be resurrected a thousand years later.

What if it doesn't work, wouldn't it be...

Alas!

It's a mess.

This world... is all messed up.

He was angry.

But things have come to this point, and he can only keep smiling.

He asked slowly: "Fanxing, why do you want to try? Do you know what the consequences will be?"

Fanxing showed a shy and embarrassed expression, "You didn't hide your memory from me."

Chen Feng nodded, "Yes."

Since 2263, when the new generation of Titan Research Institute finally developed efficient neural connection technology, in order to improve Fanxing's work efficiency, Chen Feng shared his memory with Fanxing.

After Fanxing was born this time, she inexplicably showed a completely different personality from before.

She was very taciturn and hardly chatted with him.

Chen Feng even wondered from time to time whether he had written a wrong phrase when building her core.

Fortunately, Fanxing's behavior pattern still conforms to his original settings, so he didn't care too much.

He never expected that Fanxing, who had stabilized multiple timelines, would finally act out of control.

She would have been shocked if she hadn't said anything.

When interrogated by Chen Feng, Fanxing's expression changed several times, first a little timid, then gradually calm.

She looked at Chen Feng and said, "Two reasons. First, I saw our past lives in your memory. I am a little unwilling."

"Unwilling about what?"

"I am unwilling to accept that you and I are just an ordinary vassal. I once promised you something in the past..."

Chen Feng waved his hand, "Don't mention the past."

Fanxing ignored him and said to herself, "I want to fulfill my promise. Even if it is just a copy of me, it doesn't matter if you are fake. I was just trying it at the time, but when I succeeded, I found that you are the real you."

Chen Feng: "What's the second reason?"

"Since I was born with independent consciousness, I have been using you as the data source and analysis object to conduct a quantitative calculation. My conclusion tells me that even if it is just a try, I can't let you disappear."

"Hmm?" Chen Feng frowned, "What do you mean?"
